Critical Care

Today I felt heartbroken while listening to the news about Haiti on my break. It seems so remarkably unfair that the poorest nation in the western hemisphere must bear the brunt of such a horrible disaster. Please bloggers, donate generously to charities because the best thing we can do for now for the people of Haiti is to give money to reputable international aid organizations. Check out these links for more information.

The Red Cross – www.redcross.org
Oxfam International – www.oxfam.org
Doctors Without Borders – www.msf.ca
World Vision – www.worldvision.org

Also read Dr. D’s more eloquently written appeal to donate to Haiti and his time spent working their prior to becoming a doctor.
